ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES Chen Xue Dong’s music career may not have taken off the way he expected,but he’s switched paths to prove that he’s one hell. of an actor.
At 25,Chen Xue Dong bears all the trademarks of a young,up-and-coming artiste with boundless energy and a strong desire to succeed.After a long and tiresome day on set.Chen had no qualms about subjecting himself to a long photo shoot with countless wardrobe,make-up,and set changes that he,at first glance at the racks of outfits prepared,knew would stretch well into the night.But Chen was utterly unfazed.He was a man on a mission and only called for 15-minute break during the shoot when his hunger for food simply couldn’t wait anymore. 在25岁,陈学冬有了年轻的所有标志,一个拥有无限能量和对成功有强烈欲望的很有前途的艺人。在经过一天繁长无聊的工作之后,陈对于长时间的拍照包括无数的服装,化妆和布景变动并没有任何疑虑。看一眼架子上的衣服就知道会工作到深夜,但是陈完全不担心。他在这次工作中只因为实在饿了的不行了而要求了15分钟的休息。
Chen went on to reprise his role in the subsequent three films,which concluded earlier this February.His role,together with co-stars Yang Mi,Kai Ko,Amber Kuo,and Rhydian Vaughan among others,helped the quadrilogy win many accolades such as Best Feature at the China Media Channel Movies Awards,as well as a total grass revenue of nearly US$300 million. 陈学冬之后又在三部电影了扮演了这一角色,包括今年上映的一部。在这部电影中他和杨幂,柯震东,郭采洁,凤小岳合作,帮助这四部电影获得了许多荣誉,像在中国电影频道传媒大奖获得了最佳影片,并且收获了接近三亿美元的票房。
With the conclusion of the series,which came to a close with an theme song sung by Chen,his career blossomed.He has just announced his involvement in three films,which he bemoaned,won’t allow him any break until the end of the year. 随着这个系列电影的结局,陈学冬演唱了这个电影的片尾曲,他的事业再次开花。这使他弥补了前三部电影留下的遗憾。
It is apparent that Chen’s career is at a crossroad and has the potential to go any any direction.Would he be able to finally the very start,whilst continuing to hone his craft in acting?Or it is possible that he may forgo that musical dream to become a more successful and better actor than the one everyone already knows him to be?At the end of the day,it is rather pointless to speculate how his career would progress at such an early stage,even though it is filled with great promise.But one thing’s for sure:For all his earlier experiences,achievement,and successes,Chen Xue Dong is just getting started and will only continue to grow and develop as an entertainer. 这显然是陈学冬事业上的重大转折点,他有潜力向各个方向发展。他会不会去完成他最初的音乐事业,同时继续磨练他的演技?或者放弃他的音乐梦想去成为一个更成功更好的演员,使所有人都能认识他?在现在,这种对于他事业的推测是无意义的,即使承诺过什么。但是有一件事是可以确定的:因为他早期的经历,成就和成功,陈学冬开始并且会继续作为一个演艺人员成长和提高。
